Pictured are some of Michael Hughes Family - the header on his facebook page
My father, Michael J. Hughes, passed on Thursday. I am sure that you remember him from running the store when I could not.
He loved to tell you all his stories, partly to educate you all and partially to keep you in the store.
He will be greatly missed.
Therefore, the store will be closed until late next week.
I will update you all when we reopen. In the meantime, attached is the link to the funeral information. Go raibh maith agat as do thuiscint
